Today we’re going to talk about what causes kidney stones. It’s odd that kidney stones even form in the first place, but calcification can occur in many parts of the body. 97.2% of the people with kidney stones in a certain study also had tiny bacteria (nanobacteria) in the kidney stones. These nanobacteria eat calcium and form bone-like crystal structures—a type of calcium that’s in bone. They’ve also found nanobacteria in calcium deposits in other parts of the body. The problem is that the immune system has a difficult time detecting nanobacteria because they protect themselves with biofilms. But, the immune system will detect a problem and will trigger an immune response. An immune response can create a lot of inflammation, leading to complications. Before using any natural remedies to break up biofilms, take TUDCA and have activated charcoal on hand. How to help prevent kidney stones: 1. Drink 2.5 liters of fluid per day 2. Take calcium citrate and consume lemons 3. Take potassium citrate 4. Take garlic 5. Get on Healthy Keto® and do intermittent fasting 6.

I was getting a stone about every 2 years and ended up in the ER twice. The last one I had was 7mm and the doctors told me I wouldn't be able to pass it so they scheduled me to see a Urologist to put me under while they ran a scope through the ureter to break it up. While waiting for the appointment I read up on every natural remedy I could find. I did the lemon remedy and also apple cider vinegar treatments. After doing these my pain was completely gone within about 4 days. I still had to go to the urologist appointment which was a week later and they did another scan that morning but didn't tell me the results. I was feeling wonderful with no pain but just a little tired. I wasn't sure if the stone was still there though so I went along with the doctors who went ahead and did the scheduled procedure. When I woke up from the anesthesia they told me there was nothing there to break up. The stone had apparently dissolved due to the lemon water and apple cider vinegar. Ever since then I try to drink water every day with a couple of capfuls of organic apple cider vinegar. I haven't had a stone in over 8 years now. I tell every one I can about apple cider vinegar's wonderful benefits. I used to drink a lot of soda (Mountain Dew especially) and so I was often dehydrated from the sugar and caffeine. Dr. Berg is right in that you need to stay hydrated. My doctors had told me that from their experience they have a saying "Once a stoner, always a stoner" implying that you are going to be stuck with these things the rest of your life but that is not true. You can find natural remedies to prevent or heal your body if you get them. The lemon remedy works as follows: buy about a dozen lemons or so and in the first hour squeeze them to fill a cup of 6 to 8 ounces. Drink this down undiluted in the first hour. For the next hour and every hour afterwards throughout the rest of the day squeeze a lemon in with a cup of 8 ounces water. Drink this diluted lemon water every hour. You can also do apple cider vinegar mixed with water which is what i do now to prevent them from forming, or dissolve them if formed. I've also heard asparagus helps with the urinary tract too. Anyway, Merry Christmas and God bless everyone who reads this. Kidney stones are horribly painful and I pray you never get one.

When I was pregnant, I passed a kidney stone. Comparing the pain of both events, I’d prefer to give birth!

Hi doctor. I am writing from Turkey. I also had a kidney stone problem. We in Turkey can solve this problem in two ways. First, we drink yogurt water on an empty stomach every morning. This is the exact solution. Secondly, avocado leaf tea is drunk on an empty stomach in the morning. This is the second exact solution.

I am from the Netherlands. I've had serious stomach / intestinal problems for a year now. according to the doctors from a diaphragmatic rupture. But the diagnosis was vague while I had severe complaints. Started TUDCA/NAC 3 weeks ago. Pain complaints have now been reduced by at least 75%. Every day better. Thank you very much for your video!!!!!
